The Influence of Social Media

All these talks about hair care and stuff is all thanks to the influence of social media and the question I ask it, '' am I part of the addicted ones? ''

[irp]Let's face it. The latest hair cut, hair color, hair products, hair guru and more all become visible via social media. You are here reading perhaps because you chanced upon something on Google or Facebook or Instagram and the others.

Admitting that you are a social media addict might sound harsh but I think I am. I check my Facebook fan page like a hundred times a day, I go to Instagram about 4 times a day (because I get to check only in the morning) and as for YouTube, countless. I hardly ever watch all the videos on my feed yet I still check who has what.

The worry is that I can get swayed by trends and get caught up in a dream. My reality is I love to socialize but to be dependent on social media like this is crazy.

I don't think I can do a day without social media so the challenge now isn't about not visiting any of them but cutting down on the time spent there.As for my hair, I'm keeping it away from the effects of trends by doing what I love most - challenging myself.Can I do once a week Facebook? How about YouTube? And whatsapp?Let's see how it goes.

In case you have relaxed hair and wondering if you can use chebe powder the answer is a yes.

All you need is to be able to plait your hair or twist up. You can also use cornrows.
To prepare the chebe mixture, add a few tablespoon full to a creamy product. I usually recommend your moisturizer or butter for a good hold.

Shampoo and condition your hair well and apply the chebe mixture. Plait up the hair and leave it for at least 7 days before reapplying the chebe mixture.

When you are ready to wash out, which could be in a month or whenever you want, just shampoo the hair and condition as usual.

You can use the mixture again for another couple of weeks.

The Italian variety has a more fragrant and less bitter taste than the curly variety.
